Chapter 38Alessia's povI choked heavily on the water I kept sipping and a few minutes later, I was able to relax and the moment my head touched my bed, I slept off. The next morning, I walked out of my door and saw a man standing there. Could it be the same person the night before? I thought but as soon as he turned, I realized it was a different person entirely. "Do you realize you look suspicious standing in front of a young she-wolf's house?" I asked, my voice so loud. I wanted him to sense my anger. "You are more suspicious so be more quiet to avoid implicating yourself." He said and walked towards me. "By the way, what were you doing with omega Vain?" He asked me and I looked up at him like he was stupid. "I don't know anyone by the name vain. Can you just get out?""I can go but you have to beg me. I know you have a hand in what happened to Leila. If nothing, you know her whereabouts.""I don't know what you are talking about. Why are you harassing me?" I asked him. "Hara
Chapter 39Alessia's povLifting it up, I quickly pushed it into one of the deepest wells in the Black pool pack. After that, I ran out and headed to my house. Panting heavily, I was about to open the door when I caught a man standing there and looking at me. What the heck? I swore inside of me. I really didn't want to have to deal with people all the time. "What are you doing there?" He asked me. I couldn't see him clearly as I was famished and tired. "Not your business, not your problem," I said to him and attempted to walk in when he pushed me hard to the floor causing me to almost strain my back muscle. "It's the pack business. Why do I see blood all over you?" He asked me. I looked into his eyes. Like me falling made me more sober. "I want to go in. ""you are going nowhere." He said to me and attempted to go see what was thrown."Look Jack you are my friend and I will never lie to you. You have to listen to me." I said to him. "Shut up I stopped being your friend the mom
Chapter 40Alessia's povWhat does he need that for? I thought."Let go of me." I freaked out and before I could say another word, he injected me.Oh no!I cried as I then started losing my consciousness. It turned out he had given me four times the lethal dosage.****I woke up feeling lightheaded as I tossed and turned around what felt like a wooden chair.Where was I? I thought as I looked around and realized where I was. This house again? I turned around to see if anyone was around but no one was there to pay attention to me.Smiling a bit, I stretched my legs. For some reason, I felt better. On the table close to the wooden bed, I sighed balms and native drinks. Did he treat me himself? Where could he be? I said and started feeling a bit careful. Sitting up, I put on the footwear that clearly wasn't mine as I sought escape. But on reaching the door, I realized, I was naked. Shit! I spat and rushed back to the bed, quickly covering my body hoping no one had seen me."where is h
Chapter 41Alessia's povOn hearing my voice coupled with me hitting him hard, he jumped up from the bed and faced me.Shocked, I stared at him for what seemed like forever."Gabriel? What the hell are you doing here?" I asked him."I'm sorry I just wanted to help. Please be calm. Don't be frightened. I will always be here for you.""Don't give me that crap. Just let me know what your issues are. What are you doing here?" I asked, my voice raising."I have been monitoring you," he said and I froze in shock.Wasn't that too much? I thought. If he has been monitoring me like he said then he must really know too much 'cause a lot had happened in the past few days."look you look troubled okay? Your steps spell fear. Are you in some sort of danger? Do you think someone is after you and fears that you may disappear like your best friend?" he asked me and I laughed in my mind.Turned out he didn't know anything and was just worried that what happened to Leila would happen to me.Gabriel lov
Chapter 42Alessia's pov"You are following me right?" he asked her."ouch! I feel some kind of headache. Can I skip this?" I asked faking sickness."Where did the sickness come from? We were just here. Oh on! Alright, I guess I will have to go alone." he said to me and at that moment, I felt my problem ease without stress. Soon, he made his way out of the house to go attend the meeting himself while I chilled back in Carlson's mansion.**********Gabriel's povDespite my parents' hatred for Alessia, I had made sure I made her feel precious. Just as precious as I thought she was. I loved her, there was no doubt and I made her realize that I could accept her any way she was.I went back to my house to get prepared for the meeting when I heard a knock on my room door. My eyes changed as I was starting to get pissed. I hated being interested when I was preparing to go out. Thinking it was one of the omega in my father's house, I decided to be quiet. But that was until the knock became lo
Chapter 43Gabriel's povHandling her the medicines, I watched her reaction.Her expressions changed and she looked at the drug and then at me. I wondered what the expression meant as for some reason the smile I saw on her face was on and she stared deeply at me. "Are you trying to see through me?" she asked me and I turned my head. "no," I replied. She was wrong about that. I was just trying to give my mother the benefit of the doubt. I thought that if my mom saw us together in public for once, her perception would change and she would strive to protect Alessia's name at all costs all for my name but the look on her face wanted something else."You don't necessarily have to go to the meeting anyways, so what if I say I want you" she asked me and I passed my hands mid-air.Really? I never thought of that as I good idea. Though enticing, my duties in the pack come first."Look Alessia, we can do this some other time okay? Let's focus on something else for now. Didn't you say you love
Chapter 44Gabriel's povI made my way to Carlson's apartment but on getting there, she wasn't in the room. I searched different areas, but she wasn't there either don't give up. Then I remembered she had an apartment closer to the forest. With speed, I rushed there to speak with her.On getting there, as I had expected, everywhere looked still. It was obvious werewolves had gone to answer to Alpha Xander. If she was to be inside, then it meant that only she was disobeying, and maybe me.I walked to the front of the door and knocked thrice.When I thought no one would answer, she opened the door and came out."Gabriel you should be in the Alpha's meeting," she said to me and I smiled."I came to discuss something with you. Why are you looking rough though?" I asked her and she looked back and faced me again."me?" she asked."Yes, you. Who else Alessia.""Whatever please just leave," she said and almost closed the door when I put my foot in between it. "You can't go just like that Al
Chapter 45Leila's povI remember waking up from the cold hard floor on gloomy morning in the forest, I had woke from my slumber, my senses slowly awakening from its grip, my consciousness returned, a chilling realization washed over me as I realized I was in cage, not just that, I was confined within the cage.My heart pounded in my chest like a captive bird desperate to escape its prison. Panic surged through my veins as my gaze swept over the surroundings. The cage was small and cramped, its metal bars forming an oppressive latticework that seemed to mock my freedom.I had no recollection of how I had come to be trapped within this cruel enclosure. My heart raced desperately searching for fragments of lost memory. But there was nothing, only a void where clarity should have resided.As the realization of the situation I was in sank in, a sense of isolation and despair enveloped me. I was alone, trapped, and forgotten. The world outside my cage seemed distant and inaccessible, a cru
